Benalla 23/02/2018 Pierro and Redoutes Choice

Our first race at Benalla is a no bet race. Race 2 1200m not confident but the favourite Snipes looks hard to beat . Lonrho out of a Commands mare Luke Currie to ride.
Race 3 looks another tough maiden going with the Stockdales and Turf Diva.
Race 4 is an interesting race with Hayes /Dabernig having three chances but I'm going to lean towards Jeddah Aheadah he is by Piero out of a Lion Hunter mare and looks very honest. Today maybe his day. Savvy Ken also a good chance as 1600m is a spot on distance for the Savabeels but drawn wide a concern. The All American gelding Free For All best of the Hayes horses.
Race 5 Another difficult race, the 3 chances i can see are the Piero horse, Kapow also Royal Zephyr by Commands and a place chance to Fire and Brimstone by Fastnet Rock.
In Race 6 I think Here Comes Lenni can get home. It has plenty of race experience is fresh and being out of a Centaine mare this is a plus as the Tavistocks do require a little further. Regan Bayliss to ride. A big watch on Hibernator from the Hayes/Dabernig yard first up.
Race 7 is our special for the day Regal Embrace from the Hayes camp a beautifully bred gelding by Redoutes Choice out of the Encosta mare Love and Kisses. I just feel with fitness, race experience he could be ready to fire. There is also an interesting Ocean Park filly Rip Girl to be ridden by Damien Thornton at value could run the place.
A watch race in the eigth. The Redoutes Choice horse Charlton too short probably runs second and Chance Taken a Hard Spun back in distance could win it but hasnt got a great winning record.
In the ninth race a bit of a toss up between Broo Boss a Street Boss gelding out of a Commands mare or Groegans Hero a More Than Ready out of an Encosta mare. Just leaning towards the later because of his victory last start may have turned a corner and I'm starting to notice with the More Than Ready they can put a few together.
In the last Invincible Rock looks the winner but is very short. Fastnet Rock gelding looks to have some promise. I Love this Lady could be one to place being fresh and is good value.
